Talking Tunguska, bizarre theory posed.

Let me state first and formost I am NOT advocating this theory, I believe it to be not only impossibly bizzare, but also with out any scientific basis whatsoever. What I am doing is posting it for knowlegable people to disect, pick apart, chuckle over or even to simply solidify one's belief that no matter how stupid you believe yourself to be, there is always someone out there to make you feel a whole lot better about yourself.
I did a search of the forum before posting this one and did find a single thread on the story, but it was mostly a thread chuckling about it. What I am looking for is a more scientific decimation of the idea. I already have a few bits that completely obliterate the notion, such as, the article states that the object that exploded over siberia weighed "over 1 billion tones". Yet we know the object itself was no more than 40-60 meters in size. Would this combined size and wieght make for an object of near impossible density and mass? And would not any object coliding with a 40-60 meter sized object screaming in to the atmosphere at the incredible velocity it traveled at, be a bit like a bug hitting a car on a highway?
Anyway, here's the article, have fun. I am off for a few days with not much to do as the weather is kindy soggy, so yes, this is the best I could find for personal amusement today. Have fun.
